Everyone keeps repeating the same two claims about the Pretti shooting:

“He had a right to carry.”
“He had a right to film.”

Both statements are true.
And both are meaningless without context.

In this episode, I explain why focusing on abstract rights while ignoring real-world behavior leads to bad conclusions — and dangerous lessons.

Carrying a firearm doesn’t make you more entitled to confrontation.
It makes you more responsible for avoiding it.

Filming law enforcement doesn’t mean you can interfere with an active operation.
And slogans about “rights” don’t override duty-to-retreat laws, lawful orders, or basic survival reality.

This isn’t about excusing anyone.
It’s about refusing to lie to ourselves about how rights actually work when things get tense and people are armed.

If we want accountability, we also need honesty — about responsibility, context, and consequences.
